With a variety of whale sightings already confirmed in the 'preseason', this year is set to be busy, exciting and hugely impressive. It's going to be great to have these majestic creatures back on the coast of Sydney for the next few months, creating a real natural attraction for us to see, so lets make the most of it.A perfect cure for those winter blues.

This year, Manly Whale Watching is able to offer a new way of seeing these magnificent hump back whales, in a hair-raising speed boat trip upon the new addition to the Manly Ocean Adventures fleet. MV 'Extreme 2', a 12 metre rib, with a combined engine total of 900 horsepower, is virtually guaranteed to be the first to spot the whales, cover the largest area in search of them and give you a adrenaline fuelled thrill ride at the same time. However, this boat is limited to 21 people and therefore it is required to book early to secure a seat!

For an equally impressive, more relaxed approach, the ocean going vessel 'MV True Blue' is also a great option. With a larger capacity and added height out of the water, this boat offers paramount comfort for your trip, male and female toilets, along with great viewing platform on the upper deck.
